A Comparison between the Morphologies and Structures of Dwarf Galaxies with and without Active Massive Black Holes

We study the morphologies and structures of 57 dwarf galaxies that are representative of the general population of dwarf galaxies and compare their demographics to a sample of dwarf galaxies hosting optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs). The two samples span the same galaxy stellar mass (...
